[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Ji-hee] Lexus Korea will begin sales of the 2021 model year ‘ES 300h’ starting from the 24th.


The 2021 ES 300h introduces two new safety features: the ‘Rear Cross Traffic Auto Brake (RCTAB)’ system, which detects vehicles approaching from blind spots while reversing, issues warnings, and assists in collision prevention through brake control when operating conditions are met; and the ‘Parking Support Brake (PKSB)’, which detects collision risks with objects in front and behind during parking, issues warnings, and assists in collision prevention.


The maximum output is 178ps/5700rpm, and the maximum torque is 22.5 kg·m/3600-5200rpm. The official combined fuel efficiency is 17.2 km/ℓ.


Lee Byung-jin, Executive Director of Lexus Korea, said, “We hope customers enjoy the premium hybrid driving experience delivered by Lexus’s flagship model with the 2021 ES 300h.”


The prices for the 2021 ES 300h are 61.1 million KRW for the Luxury trim, 63.2 million KRW for Luxury Plus, and 67.1 million KRW for Executive.



Meanwhile, to commemorate the launch of the 2021 ES 300h, Lexus Korea plans to offer the ‘Lexus Finance Buy’ program starting in September. This financial program allows customers to decide the principal repayment amount and design monthly payments and deferment rates, and will be available for hybrid models of the ES, RX, UX, and NX.
